First Installation Idea

My mind has been buzzing with stuff for FMP recently. I've got an idea for a performance piece that I'm not actually going to perform but instead record and put onto a blank dvd. I want to do it RIGHT NOW but I'll have to wait until the weekend until I get everything I need.

I've also been thinking about installations and where my ideas might be heading. I've had little bottles with corks for ages that I was planning on crafting with. They were 99p for 6- bargain! But then overnight I had a great idea for them. I put messages (my typical indirect sweary sentences) on a teeny tiny bit of paper, threaded that through the paper and up through the cork, back down and secured it. Here are the results-

You can't see the messages here. I bunched them all together, varying the lengths, and hung them from the ceiling. On reflection, I'd spread them out more. 

Normal light didn't really have an impact with this, so I turned on the projector and focused it on the bottles. I thought the shadow was really nice and added something to it. 

Decided the whole projector light wasn't really doing anything for impact. Cut out a crap circle, as if it were a spotlight. 

This had a much better effect. 

Pictures really don't justify this. Just that bit lighten up in a dark room was really nice. I can't really explain it, but I was super excited about it. I could imagine it being a darkened area that you have to walk into with hundreds of bottles containing messages hanging up. 

I just ordered more on ebay. 30 for just over a tenner. Woop!
